Book Description

May 2003
Licensing is the most important business method of the new global economy. This book reveals how the licensing of intellectual property can be taken to a new business level to enable innovators to capitalize on their inventions and their research & development as never before. This book represents a true shift of the paradigm in which the licensing field has traditionally operated. From his vantage point as a business person, lawyer and researcher, Ted LeValliant challenges much of the common wisdom about the licensing of innovation and how best to capitalize on it effectively. Then, the book turns to transfer pricing, the most significant tax issue in the new global economy. On the transfer pricing side, Ted LeValliant challenges much of the common wisdom about how best to capitalize on innovation competitively. Since transfer pricing is both a business matter and a tax matter, Ted LeValliant then provides a unique and highly critical look inside Canada’s international tax law regime, casting new light on this important aspect of the globalization of Canada’s new economy.

Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Ted LeValliant has been active in the licensing and transfer pricing aspects of the new economy, domestically and internationally, for much of the past twenty years, as an advisor to innovators seeking to exploit their technologies, as a lawyer, as a researcher with a postgraduate degree encompassing key aspects of this book, as a business executive in the technology, domestic and global arenas.

Ted LeValliant has developed an array of step-by-step strategies for licensing technology of all types, from low-tech to hi-tech, domestically and internationally. Theses strategies are ground-breaking in the manner in which they bring business principles to bear on licensing and how these strategies are then applied, on a business basis, to transfer pricing in the new economy to enable the licensing of Canadian innovation on a more competitive, global basis.

"Capitalizing on Innovation" is Ted LeValliant's fourth book, having co-authored "What's the Verdict" (New York: Sterling, 1991), and authored the "Complete Guide to Franchising in Canada" (Toronto: Macmillan, 1992) and "Achieving Wealth for Canadians" (Toronto: Macmillan, 1994)

.
This is the most advanced book I have seen on licensing. Until I read this book, I hadn't fully appreciated the extent to which licensing is a business.

Any inventor of technology, from low-tech to high-tech, could apply the business strategies laid out in this book. I am not aware of any book that adds so much to the licensing field. This author really has something new to contribute, and does so in plain language.

Although this book is written for Canadian innovators, the strategies it lays out apply to innovation in any country. The same is true of the strategies it lays out on global transfer pricing, something I had never considered in the business of technology licensing.

It is logical, though, that this book originates in Canada because almost half of Canada's GDP is generated globally (much higher than most other countries) and therefore global licensing and transfer pricing are particularly important to Canadians and to Canada's role in the new economy.

I would buy this book just for the analysis of the business of licensing, or just for the analysis of transfer pricing. As a Canadian reader, I would also buy this book just for the final chapter, which exposes the true nature of Canada's international tax law regime.
